Hi all, several years of pain, discomfort, tiredness, lack of energy and several other issues that I'm afflicted with, have taken a great toll on me, I had an appointment with my doctor, who has been brilliant with me, is 99% sure I'm suffering from Chronic Fatigue. The signs are there, I've had blood tests and have been keeping a diary of my day to day life and how it affects me. The content is not good and since my decision to escape from a woman I was having a relationship, has not improved my sense of wellbeing.
The doctor has tried me on a few medications to help me sleep, the last one being, Amytriptilene, but no matter when I take them, they only seem to take effect the following afternoon. I've also been taking Rosuvastatin, which as many will know is a statin, this is the fourth such type of statin I've taken and none seem to do anything apart from making me tired, achy, nauseous and irrational. So, the doctor has advised me to stop them for two weeks, to see if there's any change. Has anyone else had the same symptoms from either or both of these medications?
I don't like Christmas to start with and even as a child, I never liked it, why? I don't know, but that's just me. With it being only 3 weeks away, I just want to close the door and wake up when it's 2020. I'll be keeping up with the diary and my feelings as each day progresses and have another appointment on December 30th.
This is not like me, I'm normally upbeat, full of fun and ready for a laugh. The season changes don't seem to bother me, as I take each day as it comes and try and find something to do each day to keep myself busy and occupied.
If anyone can advise or make any suggestions that may help or give me a different way of looking at things, I'd be very grateful.
Thank you.
